It was already late when I walked out of Chen Yiben's hometown.
"Find a place to sleep tonight and go back early tomorrow morning?" Xia Mingzhi asked Che Linwan for his opinion.
The two of them searched for the software for a long time.
What a small place! The accommodation software doesn't even have a recommended hotel.
There are no chain hotels, let alone B&Bs.
Che Linwan's smile was already a little tired, "Are we going to knock on the door and ask for shelter?"
Might as well carpool home all night.
Although there is a possibility of being thrown into the wilderness on the way and being robbed and killed by a ride-sharing driver.
I took a look at Xia Mingzhi and remembered that this kid was good at fighting. He might be able to defeat the carpool driver in hand-to-hand combat.
"Xiao Xia."
"ah?"
"If we are abandoned in the wilderness and the driver wants to kill us, will you leave me and run first? After all, you don't need to outrun the driver, you just need to outrun me."
Xia Mingzhi's expression was stunned for a long time, and then he seemed to remember something.
"I've seen that episode!"
"Huh? What."
"The Biography of Genius Theory."
"So you watched it too?"
"Yes. Sister Meiren forced me to watch it. She wanted to find someone to discuss the plot."
"… "hehe.
Just as he was talking, he saw the word "accommodation".
It’s really just the word “accommodation”.
Written on white cardboard and posted in a corner alley.
No light signs, no fluorescent powder.
The only thing that made me notice it was the flashlight on the front of a tricycle passing by.
Captured by Xia Mingzhi's keen dynamic vision.
Looking at the narrow alley, Che Linwan hesitated.
Let’s not talk about the accommodation environment first.
Security is also a big issue.
"I'll go in and take a look first. Are you waiting here?"
Che Linwan instinctively grabbed the hem of his clothes with her backhand.
Don't even think about it!
Don't even think about leaving her alone in this wilderness!
"Doctor Che?"
Xia Mingzhi stared at Che Linwan's face for a while.
It was so dark all around that she couldn't see her expression clearly.
But there was a faint feeling that maybe because she was too tired, her tight self-control had relaxed.
Instead, he seemed a little childish.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and Dr. Che, who could cut the spine of a corpse with a chainsaw with one hand, said very seriously, "I'll go with you!"
"That's fine."
Walking into the alley, I finally found a B&B with the name "Inn" on it.
It seems that the decoration is new, the area is not large, but there is a light at the door!
The moment he saw the lights, Che Linwan felt like he had returned to civilization.
There was a middle-aged aunt sitting at the front desk, who was watching the TV series "National Action" and was shocked.
The smell of roasted sweet potatoes and melon seeds came from behind the front desk.
"ID card." Although he didn't raise his head, he still knew accurately that someone had come in to stay.
Che Linwan touched his pocket and took out a driver's license.
The aunt at the front desk glanced and didn't answer, then saw Xia Mingzhi's ID card between her fingers.
"It's just one room."
"Huh?! Two people."
"But you don't have an ID card."
"I... have a driver's license!"
"We can't find anyone with a different number from the DMV."
It sounds like you can check your ID card.
"Then, that, that... twin beds?"
"All standard rooms have twin beds." The aunt rolled her eyes at Che Linwan, "Why, do you want a double bed room?"
Che Linwan gritted his teeth and was so angry that he couldn't speak.
No wonder they say that a tiger is bullied by a dog!
Xia Mingzhi took the key, but looked at Che Linwan with a smile.
The aunt also gave him a bottle of iced lemon tea, maybe because he looked cuter.
"Dr. Che, happy living together!"
I'm living with you, my sister! ! !
Che Linwan walked up to the second floor with a bang.
The so-called aura is not enough for anger.
The B&B is newly renovated and smells like fresh paint.
"room number?"
Xia Mingzhi glanced at the key card.
206.
Then follow the corridor to find it.
It's the end when we reach room 205.
There is only a storage room at the end.
There's a ghost!
Che Linwan was so frightened that he took a step back and fell directly into Xia Mingzhi's arms.
"Doctor Che is already ready to throw himself into his arms?"
"No! Look..." She pointed to Room 205 at the end.
There is no 206!
The two returned to the front desk again, this time with a layer of vigilance and darkness on their faces.
"On the mezzanine." The aunt sounded like she was meeting two idiots.
From the second to the third floor, there is a half-story mezzanine. Room 206 is right there.
“…”
The two looked at each other with complicated expressions, and each saw the "shut up" warning in the other's eyes.
